- Merry Christmas! In this special episode, join Jet Ski Jim and Merlon as they pay a visit to the incredible veteran fireman, Joe Giron.

Explore his fascinating Anglio project, marvel at his restored Gerstner boxes, and hear the captivating story behind Joe's VW sand rail, featured on the cover of Hot VW in October 1996.
But this episode goes beyond the projects and engines. Watch as Joe showcases a vintage fire pull with ticker tape, in perfect working condition, adding a unique touch to his collection of treasure. Then he takes us back to his firefighting days in Montebello, California, sharing emotional tales of heroism, camaraderie, and the deep bond that ties firefighters together. In the spirit of the season, Jet Ski Jim and Merlon extend a heartfelt thank you to all our firemen for their selfless service and dedication.

Merry Christmas everyone! I am sincerely grateful for every firefighter. My father, my uncle, and my brother are also in this brotherhood.
this is awsum great episode
im in awe of the collection that guy has, truly amazing collection, thanks for sharing
That fire pull was the bomb!
Enjoyed this episode Jimmy. I’m retired LAFD 35 years. Nice show boys. Jimmy I bet you had many Christmas and Holidays in the firehouse growing up. Great memories.
Thank you for your service! 💗💗💗
Man this dude is awesome, make me miss my dad, grandpa uncles and all the cool old guys I grew up around! Good video Jimmy! Thanks for sharing!
This dude is a hero! He deserves every cool little toy he has. He earned them.
Very interesting Jimmy! Merry Christmas to you and your family!!
I love those Gerstner boxes!
What a neat guy Joe was. Loved his shop also! 💪👍🏼
I'm watching right along, then my eyes start raining....why you do that to me?
Same 😢😢😢
Never seen you and Merlin so quiet before. Great vlog. Watched the whole thing. Merry Christmas. 🎄
Right? 😂😂 Merry Christmas!
Old world craftsmen will never be replaced today .the kids now could care less about precision anything. The lost ARTS are gone forever.!!!
Fabulious stuff. Big thanks to "Fireman Joe". Merry Christmas to all. 3-types a human beings on the planet. 1-sheep 2-wolves 3-sheepdogs, ALL fireman are sheepdogs.
This was a emotional one,fire is something we are born with a natural fear of and the firefighters are the ones running into the flames while others are running out.these brave men and women have my total respect . Prayers for the family of those lost in bullhead and for the firefighters because the losses clearly weigh more than the win.
Joe is one of the legends we hear about. Thank s to all that serve the community.
Merry Christmas from Australia
Man! Getting see Fireman Joe's Garage, His toys and hear his life experiences was Awesome! Thank You Merlin & Jet Ski Jim! ✌
I too can talk fireman lingo. I am a third generation firefighter from my mom's family. My grandfather,my uncle then me. This year made 51 years in the volunteer firefighter system. I have 32 years in myself. My grandfather and I where on the same town fire department,an my uncle was on the township dept . Hearing him tell war story's has brought back lots of memories. Thanks for taking us subscribers along for the ride. Love the channel. Keep up the great work.👍✌️😎😁🍀🍀🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thank you for your service! ❤❤❤
@@KrisD007 your welcome. It was my way of giving back to my hometown community. The high light of my time as a fireman,is that I was able to drive the same 🚒 engine my grandfather dove when he was active. A 1953 La France engine.
It was so cool to hear Joe's stories about firefighting and his career. My Dad retired after thirty years as a battalion chief; his brother was also a BC in the other division (so they wouldn't end up on the same call.) I remember the tape readers that all came to one building in our city called the Fire Alarm Center. Then individual companies and trucks would be dispatched by telephone or radio.
Joe, your story of the lost children really touched me; my Dad's worst days were when he came home to tell us they had lost a child to smoke. It was the reason I didn't follow Dad into the force. I knew I didn't have the emotional strength to deal with that. Thank you so much for your service.
I hope you can spend more personal time with Joe. What an experience.
Merry Christmas
Amazing video, great story. Firemen are some of the bravest people, they run into bulding when everyone is running out. And they get enough recognition for what they do.
My father was a volunteer fireman in the early 70s my hat is off to you and thank you for everything 😊
Good history lesson on the fire department
Joe. Thank you for your service. You Are a Real Hero to me. Most of my family where and still are fire fighters/paramedics retired and active. Thank you Sir!
Jimmy episodes like this keep coming you'll have all the subs you want
I built fire truck for 26yrs. at Pierce mfg. Joe's stories just harm my heart to know that I had a part in some way to other firefighter's, from the work I put in to building fire trucks! I miss building the aerial ladders.
Fantastic Video…. Thank you for sharing. Fireman Joe needs a XX, as he is The Most Interesting Guy…. thank you all for you service.
I wqs a volunteer EMT for years, one of worse calls we had involved one mom and 3 kids drowning. We were a small town so we knew them all. It sticks with you for life. God bless you sir.
Aw man that story tore me up bad. What a hero he is. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤nice video Jimmy

What an interesting guy. Absolutely love this history being shared before it’s lost forever. Great episode! These are the best ones. Sad for Joe to live those painful memories again. Great times living in the 80’s/90’s.
Hello and a Merry Christmas morning to all . Good video. I have a good friend that was a paramedic,then a fireman , retired a fireman. Over 40years of service.
The mirror in the lids of toolboxes originated from before eye protection was required or even commonly available. So you could pick a chip out of your eye right at your workstation.
Heck of an episode, love the history... Merry Christmas!. & Thanx !

Every time I think I'm a pack rat someone like this shows me I'm just getting started at 58 years wahoooooo 😅😊
I made that hammer when I was in machinist school.
Awsome vidio
Yeah I remember those things when I was a kid. We all grew up in a little Barrio. Whoever there was an old business.. or apartments . They have those on the corner. Where is pretty young. It's funny that little door and break that glass pull that button down purple light would go off the top.
Congratulatory here comes the fire department.🤷🏽♂️. No I didn't do it. This was back in the early 60s. Severance for from the twenties 30s and 40s.
Thanks for sharing this with us it was a great seeing and listening to Joe! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours. Ive enjoyed your content.

Hey Jet ski Jim,years ago did you live in Colo Sprngs?
I very much enjoyed your video but I was unable to watch the whole thing, as I was a firefighter/paramedic in the late 70's early 80's helping save lives from a motor vehicle crash. to this day 40 to 50 years later it still bothers me when I hear people talk. Thank you for Fireman Joe
Thank you for your service.
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Jim you don't interact enough,,
